Hi

I solved this issue by performing two encoding steps:

1.  Encode the 16-bit/48KHz source to 8-bit/8KHz G.711a format (my voicemail
system is using G.711a)
2.  Encode the 8-bit/8KHz G.711a format to required 16-bit/8KHz signed WAV
format for SIPXecs

Strange but glad I managed to work around this issue.

Regards
Justin
